Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Kira and I’ve been walking and pet sitting on Rover for five years, but I have always been the person people ask to check in on their pets! I have previous experience watching over cats, dogs, tropical birds, small reptiles, rodents, and other small furry creatures. I worked on a farm and have experience with horses, cattle, pigs, and ducks as well. I’ve also done some TNR and know a bit about feral kitties too! It’s rare than an animal dislikes me. I always have toys like balls and frisbees on hand and don’t mind driving short distances with your pup if say there’s a dog park a little out of walking distance where we can play off leash. I’ve worked with deaf animals who only respond to hand signals, and am familiar with how to give medication orally and by injection. I’m always happy to learn new things and don’t mind adjusting to your animals personal quirks. Your pets are your family! I’ll always treat them like they’re part of mine.
Reviews
Kira was amazing! We loved getting her updates on what our floofs were up to. That and the pictures kept my mind at ease. Kira was responsive and personable. Our cats loved her! We will definitely be requesting her whenever we are away.
Kira is amazing. Always prompt, knows dogs very well, goes above and beyond. I am so happy and comfortable having her be with our pup.
Super responsive and leaves funny comments about the walk. Best dog walker I've had thus far.
Kira watched our cat for about 10 days and was amazing to work with. The communication was great and we loved the updates and pictures she sent. We felt like our cat was in excellent hands the whole time!!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always aim to be safe! So if I’m bringing another dog, I’ll make sure to ask first, I always use leashes, never used pinch collars, and always get permission from the owner before introducing a new training tool.
Information Kira S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has a typical routine, their favorite treats/toys, allergies, fears and/or things that trigger undesirable behavior, and any existing bad habits.
A typical day
Dogs in my care will feel mentally and physically stimulated. We’ll go on plenty of walks, I have lots of toys, feeder bowls and puzzles for them to play with, and know all the best dog parks and walking spots.

Availability
I have a lot of experience walking dogs and believe in force free training. I’ve walked a full pack (up to 13!) and have also done one on one training with more than 30 puppies in my Rover career. I’m not a certified trainer though so if there’s something I can’t quite help with I’ll help find someone more experienced to match you with.
